Construction Budget - auto change to accept estimate - WTF?

Post by mr.WHO »

Recently I fund really confusing new issue with Construction budget.

Let say I put 10'000'000 construction budget for the station when budget estimate is 0.

Then I add some construction plans to the station that change budget estimate to 200k.

Somehow, now most of my stations (not all, which is even mroe confusing) after few seconds change construction budget to near estimate (sometime a few Cr more, sometimes a few Cr less, sometimes identical).


This is really irritating because often estimate is not accurate (e.g. few Cr less) which make AI problems with purchasing those few last contrcution materials.

I don't know how to switch this Sh*t off - I tried many combination with clicking accept estimate, manually setting construction budget and many different stages, but I see no logic here:
if budet is less than estimate nothing happens, but when budget is manually set above estimate, AI will automatically reduce it to near estimate.

Please tell me how to deal with it, it drives me insane!

Sounds a lot like a bug: viewtopic.php?p=5251555#p5251555

I forgot to check if this showed up in later beta patchnotes. Maybe it isn't out yet in 7.5, or they missed it in your particular circumstance?
